Numbers 30:12

10 “If she vowed in her husband’s house, or bound herself by an agreement with an oath,

11 and her husband heard it, and made no response to her and did not overrule her, then all her vows shall stand, and every agreement by which she bound herself shall stand.

12 But if her husband truly made them void on the day he heard them, then whatever proceeded from her lips concerning her vows or concerning the agreement binding her, it shall not stand; her husband has made them¹ void, and the Lord will release her.

13 Every vow and every binding oath to afflict her soul, her husband may confirm it, or her husband may make it void.

14 Now if her husband makes no response whatever to her from day to day, then he confirms all her vows or all the agreements that bind her; he confirms them, because he made no response to her on the day that he heard them.
